Default BUILDING A GAME BOARD

I look at this Miggle game I have and there is nothing to it, metal, and a motor on the underside! Is it just as easy for custom games? Even if one uses a wooden frame, can't you just screw light metal (the field) into the frame, attach the motor?

The field sheets that I see, are they just a magnet sheet on top of the sheet metal?

If someone could, please explain how to build a game in a few short sentences???

Default Building a Board

I've been building my own boards for 11 years now. In a few sentences...here's what you're trying to do:

Make the metal or fiberboard vibrate so the men will move without falling down. Make the playing surface smooth. Make the gameboard durable.

Now, if you want to know more about how to do all that then there are quite a few people, including myself, who have built their own boards, but in the end, we're all trying to make a field as outlined above in the few sentences above. I hope this helps.

Below are pictures of a few of the boards I've built over the years.
